TIME: Time a Command


\begin{command}
\item[Form: TIME cmd\hfill]{}
\end{command}
where 'cmd' is any VISTA command.

When you type TIME before any VISTA command, VISTA will start a timer and then perform the requested command. After the command is completed, the timer will be stopped and the elapsed and CPU time of the command will be displayed.
